A unique creative outlet to develop young people’s songwriting talents and, most importantly, their confidence and self-belief to articulate powerfully how they are feeling and important issues that affect them. In addition, our members develop their ‘soft skills’ like creativity, emotional intelligence, empathy, listening, curiosity and inter-personal skills. For one hour a week our members are part of a songwriting journey with a small group of peers and the Song Academy team of professional songwriters. Term on term they will build an album of songs to treasure forever, as well as make friends and meet future collaborators.
The new Spring Term 2021 Lite songwriting programme has launched with 5 songwriting session up until half-term. A perfect opportunity to start writing a song during lockdown and enter it into The Young Songwriter 2021 competition!
Testimonials. From some of our participants and their parents.
Song Academy gives me an opportunity to express my feelings through song more effectively. I already enjoyed song-writing before but with the encouragement and guidance of the Song Academy team, I feel much more confident and I love performing at the end of term Gigs!

It’s been an incredible journey of discovery & given me so many new ideas of how to extend myself. I’ve made great out of school friends with like-minded people and we spark creative ideas off each other.
